What a blessing I received this last weekend. We were at the annual EBCA Fall Festival & Benefit Auction and the school administrator came up and asked if I would be willing to attend a Leadership Conference with some of the high school students. Would I be willing?!!! I was just looking over my calendar the other day and reflecting on the conference that I attended for years. Even as I wait for the next revealed step of God's will, He continually shows that He is in control.
In Bible class we have been studying the providences of God. He is in control of each and every aspect of our lives. Both in the good times and in the bad, my God is in control. There is nothing that I encounter that He is unaware of. All that I face is for my good and for His glory. Though I may struggle as I wait on Him, yet I must acknowledge that He is in control. As I have been reading in the book of Daniel, it has been interesting to see again that Daniel faced circumstances both pleasant and unpleasant. In both he sought to please his God and represent Him well. As I go day by day, my desire is to do the same. May my actions and attitudes be acceptable in His sight.
